PLAYBACK I Virtual CINEMA DSP With Virtual CINEMA DSP, you can enjoy all sound field programs without surround speakers. It creates virtual speakers to reproduce a natural sound field. You can listen to virtual CINEMA DSP by setting "1C SURROUND LR" in the set menu to NON. Sound field processing changes to Virtual CINEMA DSP automatically. Note • Virtual CINEMA DSP will not activate, even when 1C SURROUND LR is set to "NON" (see page 39) in the following cases: - When the 5ch Stereo, DOLBY DIGITAL, Pro Logic, Pro Logic II, or DTS program is selected. - When the sound effect is turned off. - When 6CH INPUT is selected as the input source. - When a digital signal with a sampling frequency greater than 48 kHz is input to this unit. - When using the test tone. - When connecting the headphones. I To listen with headphones (SILENT CINEMA) The SILENT CINEMA mode allows you to enjoy multichannel music or movie sound, including Dolby Digital and DTS surround, through ordinary headphones. SILENT CINEMA activates automatically whenever you connect headphones to the PHONES jack while listening to CINEMA DSP or HiFi DSP sound field programs. The "SILENT CINEMA" indicator lights up on the front panel display. (If the sound field programs are off, you listen with normal stereo reproduction.) Notes • This feature is not available when 6CH INPUT is selected or the unit is receiving a digital signal with a sampling frequency greater than 48 kHz. • The sound from the LFE channel will be mixed and output from the headphones.
